Please note this is not a Bath & North East Somerset Council Vacancy. B&NES Shared Lives Scheme We are looking to register new Shared Lives carer households in B&NES. Shared Lives is a service where the carer uses their own home, household members and daily life to provide support to people who have eligible needs. Could you make a difference to the lives of people in your local community by welcoming a person into your home? We want people who are passionate about offering high quality, personalised support to contact us. A full-time Shared Lives arrangement is a client living with the carer household. The client needs to have their own room. The scheme offers full training, the support of a dedicated coordinator and a detailed matching process with potential clients. There are significant tax incentives available for Shared Lives households, 18,140 per household per year PLUS 450 per person supported per week (up to a maximum of 3 people) tax-free. There are several different options for providing support. This role can work around childcare, having another job or as an additional household income. Application Details: Please register your interest by emailing sharedlivesbathnes.gov.uk One of our coordinators will respond and arrange an initial conversation to talk about the scheme and gather some basic information from you.
